Lady Gaga Says She Wants Marriage And Is 'Very Excited To Have Kids' Someday

Lady Gaga spoke candidly to InStyle about her career aspirations as the release date for her new album Chromatica draws near, along with her hopes for her personal life. The 34-year-old singer is very much looking forward to being a wife and mother someday. (Gaga is currently dating Michael Polansky; they went public with their relationship in February. They were first seen together at the end of last year.)

When asked what she wants out of life, Gaga said, "Marriage. More music, more movies, more charity with the Born This Way Foundation [a nonprofit dedicated to empowering youth and supporting mental health and wellness]. I want to do way more philanthropy. I want to help fund more research about fibromyalgia and neuropathic and chronic pain by putting a team of doctors together. I have a lot of dreams and hopes. What I will actually accomplish, I have no idea, but I know that I'll be doing it with the people I love."

She added later that she wants to be a parent. "I will say I am very excited to have kids," the singer said. "I look forward to being a mom. Isn't it incredible what we can do? We can hold a human inside and grow it. Then it comes out, and it's our job to keep it alive. It's so funny—everyone works out of my house every day. When they come in, I always say, 'Welcome to the Womb!'"

The singer is also thankful for her journey in music. "I feel very grateful for what I've been a part of and what I've been invited to be a part of," she said. "All these artistic experiences made me who I am today. It's like when people get married and say, 'Through thick and thin.' That's how I feel about myself. I feel like, 'You know what, Gaga? You know what, Stefani? In sickness and in health, I'm with you, and I'm going to hold your hand whatever the outcome.'"
